It's a bituva stretch, but I guess this makes your posting your hang-ups re:

! Hmmm, an off-topic thread returns back on topic! ?

I suppose this raises the interesting question - when are computers NOT an appropriate solution to a problem? Does any consultant ever say to a potential client: "No, you're better off doing this manually."?

;-)

(Yeah, I suppose this really belongs on the non-tech list. And I'd go too there if it were shadowed on gmane!)
